lyrics

Isabel Zacharias - So I was at Russell’s house meeting his new roommate Isabel for the first time this fall and we sang Wilco and Mountain Goats songs together. Then she played this song and I was floored. I told her about Group Picture and said she had to be on it. Now I am so grateful I had some caffeine that morning and had the gumption to be so forward because now I get to enjoy her poetic lyrics and soulful tune whenever I want.

she’s the woman and you knew it
an entertainer with a brand new set of teeth
called her her highness, lent her 25 cents
call you baby if you make me

still stole Kurt’s Corolla every Friday
told everybody she’s rehearsing Guys and Dolls
bought you Arizona® tea
drove all the way to Springfield to set sun over the train yard
slow dancing in parked cars
said how do you feel
she’s a leading lady peach
I mean, she was her
and she knew what that’s worth

still a woman you could laugh at
swinging around singing Say a Little Prayer For You
you look like a freak, she said I thought you were asleep
she was hopeless and you loved it

you remind me of an old thing
when being happy didn’t make me feel ashamed
do you like to dance
are you as strange as I am
you could really disappoint me

tell me baby, where’s your woman
you’d look better with a girl to fix your hair
did you go and lose her
or did you never mean to choose her
you’ll never die for nothing
you were someone to me

every time you say you say I'm sorry
but it never leaves your head
when you wake up and you wonder
at your body in your bed
there are mornings that you love her
and there’s mornings that you don't
there are some small things about her that you’ll never really know

and you remember in the shower fucking laughing at the gore
of the flicker of the thought that she could slip and hit the floor
and you’re just just so so tired of just wanting more more more
and her shampoo crushed persimmons
and you miss her
and you know what for
but she’s not yours
